A Way with Words

I received an update letter from my missionary friends who work with Wycliffe Bible Translators.  The letter included this quote from a recipient of a newly translated New Testament in his native language:

"When we read the English Bible, it's like trying to eat the husk of a coconut," stated the Solomon Islands Christian.  "But you [the translator] have husked and opened the coconut.  Now we can eat the actual meat."
